Projector LED Indicators

LEDs	state
Green light	On	ø o
Green and yellow light	Stand-by	ø ø
Yellow light	Off	o ø

If the projector is off and is powered, it will go directly to 'on' state, though it will take some time before projecting an image.

To put the projector in 'stand-by' or take it out from 'stand-by' mode, press the stand-by button and keep it down until an image goes on/off (approximate 3-4 seconds...)

Screen Settings

If using a large format screen with a regular sized immersadesk, you may switch between the different modes if and only if you have previleges to change the video settings. if you do, simply:
     setmon -x 2048x1120_72
     (stopgfx; startgfx) &
  
if you can only get access to gfx commands through sudo, then you want to:
     sudo /usr/gfx/setmon -x 2048x1120_72
     (/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/gfx/stopgfx; /usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/gfx/startgfx) &
  
the mode 2048x1120_72 can be changed to a mode which supports stereo with 1024x768_96s instead.
     sudo /usr/gfx/setmon -x 1024x768_96s
     (/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/gfx/stopgfx; /usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/gfx/startgfx) &
  
these modes should exist under: /usr/gfx/ucode/KONA/dg4/cmb/. to create new cmbs (channel settings/combinations), use ircombine (also under /usr/gfx/) and save your settings under /usr/gfx/ucode/KONA/dg4/cmb/.
